'The depth of lies is significant': CNN reporter breaks down Jack Smith's damning evidence

CNN crime and justice correspondent Katelyn Polantz on Tuesday broke down damning evidence laid out in former special counsel Jack Smith's final report on President-elect Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

In breaking down Smith's report, Polantz found it remarkable just how much detail the former special counsel puts into documenting Trump's relentless deceit.

"One of the things that he points out in many, many examples is how Trump knew that the election was not stolen in 2020, that there was not widespread fraud that could have delivered him a victory, and that he continued to lie to his supporters," she said.

She then pointed to a specific example that she said illustrated this point.

"In one point of this report, Smith goes into detail about how Trump was speaking to Mike Pence, the vice president," she recounted. "Pence called him directly minutes before Donald Trump went to the Ellipse and said, 'I do not think it is my power to overturn the result of this election in Congress.' And then Trump, still knowing he had that conversation with Pence, went before his supporters and told them, 'Let's rally, let's try and get Mike Pence to overturn the election.' The depth of the lies is quite significant."

Polantz also said it was notable that Smith considered charging Trump with additional crimes but decided against doing so.

"Another thing Jack Smith considered was potentially charging Donald Trump with the Insurrection Act, but that law was used primarily back in the 1800s and hadn't been used much at all, so they didn't want to dust off something like that to test it in courts, even though it would have sent a really powerful signal."
